The Daily Spawn

A lot of folks have writ­ten trib­utes and remem­brances about the tragedy at Vir­ginia Tech. As a mother of young chil­dren, Kick­ing N. Scream­ing writes both in that capac­ity and from the per­spec­tive of a native of Virginia.

In The Daily Spawn, we read about her real­iza­tion that some­day it could be her child being shot. It is part of the awful truth that we choose to ignore, both of our own mor­tal­ity and, more impor­tantly, the mor­tal­ity of those whom we love.

The Art of Hap­pi­ness is enti­tled for the Dalai Lama’s book. She states: “Were I the par­ent of one of those kids that were gunned down at VA Tech on Mon­day, or worse, the par­ent of the kid that did it, I’m not sure the Dalai Lama’s book would help right now. I’m not sure any­thing would. It’s my home state. Lots of my friends went to Va Tech, it’s such a famil­iar place, so the news would’ve been close to home no mat­ter what.”

We are hon­ored to award Kick­ing N. Scream­ing our Post of the Day Award.
